that's about one week of spending in washington, d.c. the problem is we've got 51 weeks of over-spending. we can talk about raising taxes, but we've got to you grow the economy. if you raise taxes on small businesses, you raise taxes on farmers and ranchers in my district, that's going to cripple small businesses. i'm not worried about ge. they've got a seat at the table at the white house. i'm worried about the small guy that's going to get hammered that don't have a lesion of tax attorneys. so i believe we need a fundamental tax reform. i thif the president agrees with that, as well. >> if you're worried about the debt, and i think we have to deal with the debt, according to the congressional budget office, you'd pick up $950 billion over 10 years by just letting the tax cuts for the rich or those making over 250 a year go for 10 years, you have 9$950 billion covered right there. that's a huge step towards the deficit. >> when you have a trillion dollars of excess spending in one year, what are we going to do for the other nine years?
